Why Bother?

Saving Money:

If the average four-person family ate dinner at home, instead of eating out, it would save hundreds of dollars each month! Our services rapidly pay for themselves. You avoid the expense of eating out, waste fewer groceries, and save a lot of time. We set you up to succeed, give a few tune-ups if necessary, and then do nothing but save you money. Sound good?

Health:

Let’s face it: when we eat out, we are not doing ourselves any favors. The food is high in fat and salt, artificial ingredients, and mystery content. In fact, when people learn what is actually in their take out food, they are less likely to return, regardless of calorie count. Mysteries should be in movies, not on your dinner plate. When you eat at home, YOU control what goes in the food. The result is healthy, wholesome meals. Sticking to a diet is much easier, and therefore so is weight loss. Don’t worry! We love you the way you are. But we’re also here to help you with your goals.

Peace:

Without a meal plan and a neat kitchen, dinnertime is a frantic rush that happens at a time when everyone is hungry. Hungry people are cranky. This is not a recipe for peace in the home. With our help, your meals are organized ahead of time. Ingredients are already stocked. Dinner can be made at a regular time, before everyone is starving, and without all the stress. You can enjoy cooking (yes, enjoy cooking) and have a relaxing meal. Doesn’t that sound nice?

Bonding:

Without a regular dinner time at the dinner table, the family scatters. Kids grab food and head back to their rooms, or people plop down to eat in front of the computer or TV. You may wonder, from time to time: Who are these strangers I live with? We believe in the Power of the Dinner Hour. Regular home-cooked meals will give your family time to reconnect and bond. In certain polls, the overwhelming majority of respondents said that cooking brings their family together, and “strongly agreed” that it is important for a family to eat a meal together. We think that home-cooked family dinners are irreplaceable. This probably won’t surprise you, but the stats show that kids that have regular dinners with their family are more likely to avoid drugs and perform better in school. By spending time with your kids at dinner, you will have a better idea about what goes on in their lives. The result is a closer, stronger family support system. That’s the Power of the Dinner Hour.

Personalized:

After working with us, you will have a useful kitchen and customized meal planning resources that are perfect for your family. Your cabinets will be stocked with everything you need, each week’s meals will be planned, and your go-to recipes will be the Tried and True Meals that your family loves and that you can make quickly. If you don’t know much about cooking, don’t worry! We will take baby steps. The important thing is that we develop a simple plan you can follow easily, and that your family will enjoy and support. We can build from there.
